Every time we use BEASTGEAR the customer service is outstanding, whether it be in…

So welcome to a brand new spanking year of 2017! Goal setting is huge for making your dreams more attainable. New year, new you….. What does that even mean?! There is always a lot of ‘fluff’ around New years. “I’m going to get into shape this year” “I’m going to try to be healthier” These are meaningless and massively vague!

Last week we created 10 images to represent 10 easy FitnessHacks, following that we were asked by a couple of people to put all the images into one article. For everyone’s ease! So here goes, 10 hacks to…

My friend thinks he’s smart. He said “Onion’s are the only food that makes you cry”….So i threw a coconut at his face. No real relevance just made me laugh. Anyway! Hot topic, does coconut water work as a hydration aid or is it all a load of rubbish?!
